Lynne' Marie Finley - LaBoy was born on August 15,1972.
She may not have been PERFECT,
but too perfect for this world to contain.
She left behind her long time love, her three loving children,
that were not through needing her.
Her sister and best friend who has difficulty with the void that was created in her soul due to Lynne's passing, a loving brother, that thanks to the Lord, was able to make it in time, to be by her side,
as she crossed over into Jesus' arms.
Lynne' left a lasting impression on everyone and anyone that knew her.
She IS loved and will always be remembered
by all her friends and family.
I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO SUBMIT A THOUGHT.

Lynne' Marie Finley- Memorial Graveside Service
Delivered by Her Mother: Linda A Finley
This is the entire memorial that I delivered for Lynne. I pray in all earnest that no parent ever has to be called upon to do this.
It is the hardest thing I have ever had to do.
Linda
As we gather today - To send Lynne's remains onward –
Let us not dwell on the sadness of her passing, but rejoice over the Love she leaves us with.
Her Love, concern and kindness is a true testament of God's handy work that dwelled within her.
Her friends became family - and her family became friends - A delicate balance achieved by very few.
She leaves her legacy within her children - and she will live in the hearts whom she touched. She surrendered her life into the Lord's hands.
Where she is now able to rest and receive her rewards as a good and faithful servant.
John:14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions, if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
We will all be together - Lynne' in not gone - only temporarily changed forms.
1 Cor:15:52 For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
We are assured Lynne' has fulfilled the scripture of 2 Tim:4:7-8 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of rightousness, which the Lord, the rightous judge, will give to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.
Remember Lynne' as a free loving spirit that is finally able to live without the shackles this life imposed upon her.
I leave you with the verses that she had me read to her the last night I stayed with her in her hospital room - It was her favorite.
1 Cor:13:1-13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of Angels, but have not Love, I have become as sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophesy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
Love suffers long and is kind: Love does not envy, Love does not parade itself, and is not arrogant. It does not behave rudely, nor does it seek it's own, Love is not provoked, and thinks no evil. Love does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the Truth!
Love bears all things - Believes all things - Hopes all things - Endures all things. LOVE NEVER FAILS!
But whether there are Prophesies, they will fail.
Whether there are tongues - they will cease –
whether there is knowledge - it will vanish away.
For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
When I was a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child - But when I became an adult - I put away childish things.
For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
And now abide Faith - Hope - Love - these three –
But the greatest of these is Love.
Please join me in the Lord’s Prayer:
Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name; Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those that trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.
May the peace of God that surpasses all understanding go with each of us all the days of our lives.
In the name of the Father - Son - Holy Ghost - Amen

The anniversary of your funeral was 4 days ago, and we did get through it.
The sunflower seeds we all planted in your memory on Oct. 25 are sprouting. It is only fitting that it is your baby girl Lexi's that has the most growth.
When Cari spoke to me about what we need to do in your memory, she did say she felt it was YOU that instructed her.
Now we have Thanksgiving Day to contend with soon.
It's funny, I don't remember last year's. My memory keeps flashing back to the year before (2005), when it appeared you had defeated the cancer, and you were happy and so full of life, and even back in college. You addressed EVERYONE around the dinner table that day so lovingly as we revealed what we were thankful for.
You truely did touch all our hearts. I just hope I had made it clear enough for you to have never doubted just how proud I am of you. I will always love you, Lynne'!
God how I miss you, Lynne'. It is coming up time to pick up the shreds of our lives and keep moving onward. But there are some that cannot seem to do so. If you are looking on, you know those I am referring to, on some levels, I know I am included. I still do not understand how someone like you, who fought, loved, and enjoyed life as much as you did, could slip away as easily as you did. It does NOT make any sense to me. That will be something I will have to discuss with the Father when I see him. I love you, Lynne'. Please look in on your brother and sister, especially Cari, now and then. She is trying so hard, but her spark has dimmed since you left.
Lynne', I wonder if you knew how much you impacted everyone around you.
It amazes me the effect you still have on your friends, not to mention your family even today. It almost seems that time has refused to acknowlege you are not here. Naturally, everyone has had to make adjustments in day to day interactions. But, it still seems everyone, on some level, still expects to see you come bounding into a room, as though you were playing some elaborate prank on everyone.
I only wish that were true. You left a very definate mark on quite a few lives here. I guess that in itself, is a tremendous testament of a life well lived.
The first completed year has come, and the beginning of another year without you here has begun.
I know the time is coming I will not be able to feel you as often, because you also must move on with your new life's existance.
It is impossible for a day to slip by that even a fleeting thought of you won't be crossing my mind. But the wanting to hold you, hear your voice and laughter will remain with me all the rest of my life.
I will forever be grateful to God, as I was the day you had to depart, that He was merciful toward you, and you were not made to suffer in your physical form, as was predicted by the health caregivers.
God is your Heavenly Father and Creator, BUT, I will FOREVER be your Mama. And I will FOREVER LOVE you, my baby girl. I miss you so very much.
It has been a full year ago that my "baby" girl went on to the other side of existance. I know she is in loving company with the Heavenly Father, Jesus our Savior, and her earthly Dad, grandparents, uncles, etc.
Although I LOGICALLY KNOW all this, my heart still will not accept the very fact she no longer is walking this earth.
I swear, there are times I think I hear her laughter. Her memory is as though she just moved to another state, and sooner or later, I will be seeing her again.
For the past few days, she has been on my heart, and the tears start to flow, moreso than the day she actually slipped away. There are times, I cannot fathom being able to continue on with this burden in my soul like this.
I know others have dealt with these circumstances, and many more to come.
What makes this unique is THIS IS MY FAMILY,
THIS WAS MY CHILD!
And as selfish as I may sound, I DID NOT WANT HER TO GO!
God help me and my family!
Lynne' - It's the day after your birthday. To say we made it through would be misleading. Better to say we EXISTED through it.
Memories went back to the events that went back exactly 2 years ago, when Aunt Mary, cousin Karen, your aunts Pam and Connie arrived for their visit, they were complelled to make, and was unspokenly understood was for YOU. Yes, you were still outwardly full of life, but God was preparing us all even then.
